Syllabus

Appellant's challenge to the constitutionality of the Reagan Tokes Law, Ohio's indefinite sentencing structure set forth in R.C. in R.C. 2967.271, was forfeited where appellant did not first raise the issue with the trial court. However, given appellant's guilty plea to second-degree felony felonious assault, the trial court committed plain error by not applying the reverse-bindover procedures set forth in R.C. 2152.121(B)(3) to the case at bar when it should have, thereby requiring appellant's conviction be reversed and remanded to the trial court for further proceedings.
